Freelancer - General Discussion

Just died on the final showdown in mumbai, ten meters from the exit after killing the leader. Had to panic-kill the leader cause I accidentally ran into a lookout who alerted the leader. Absolutely devastating.

Played Freelancer tonight to try and grab all the DLC items that have come in the Getaway and Herbalist DLC pack.

I saw the weapon silhouette on the weapon case wall and for some weird reason, I was convinced I was actually getting this for the weapon wall with the silhouettes been very similar..………….

I was gutted when I went to the Suppliers and it was this……….:joy:

‘The Smoke’ pistol is still very cool, but I’d have just rather have had the ICA Spider Lily included in Freelancer in its place :slightly_smiling_face:

Yes, I hate that these cool items release but can’t be used in Freelancer.

Heard now you get a briefcase when taking a canister with you, is that true?

It used to be true, then they screwed it up, said they fixed it, but didn’t. Is it working again?

Yes, free briefcase again

Finally! That just made some things so much simpler.

I didn’t know they commented on it. So it was unintentional?

I believe so. They did some kind of fix a while back, but it only worked in some places, and I personally never saw one.

I don’t use automatic pistols in Freelance because their shots are difficult to control, and sometimes that can interfere with certain objectives. But I’ve noticed some advantages to these weapons - when you need to blow up a gas or propane tank from a distance, they work perfectly. One burst is enough to trigger the explosion immediately.

Every time I use one to kill a target in Freelancer, it ends up alerting about every NPC in the area :joy:

honestly i never considered that aspect about that type of pistol lol. i’ve always felt the pistol’s use in hitman has always been a tool for getting rid of cameras, distractions, and breakable objects in the environment. mostly it’s a problem solving tool like weapon more than anything else to me

Yeah, and it would be fine if it didn’t have that hideous-looking extended clip sticking out, and be an unwieldy bastard with that rapid-fire nonsense.

yeah that’s what makes it a deal breaker imo. though i will say maybe one time doing hitman freelancer just for shits and giggles i use a rapid fire silencer pistol just to see the outcome of what happens and to add a bit of a challenge to it.

Like @Heisenberg said, it’s the rapid-fire that always puts me off slightly. I used it briefly in Freelander and I had a target in the basement section of Paris. I shot my target with the pistol and everyone nearby was alerted due to the rapid-fire bouncing off everything :rofl:
